Walter Hawkins and the group sings Going Away

[@markalleven7050]

When Twinkie got that mic. She heard something completely different than everyone else. What a special Gift

[@RadiantVaughn]

Loved twinkie singing on "Im Going Away" 6:01 .....she was looking back like "come get this mic" lol.... RIP WALTER

[@ryshekiaallen5923]

I think she wanted him to get the mic she turned around quickly too😂😂😂

[@TALAfan11]

The world was blessed with the gifts of Walter Hawkins. He let God bring forth so many beautiful works through him. He will never be forgotten.

[@thezasaulz1]

I love Denise’s clap!!

[@briafx]

Walter Hawkins and Twinkie were geniuses and way ahead of their time. I really used to hear these songs on the radio with regular slow jams as a child! Especially you brought the sunshine and be grateful!

[@esaiasjones1635]

Lol! I never noticed how Twinkie signaled for Walter to come take the mic back @06:39 🤣

[@cosmicviewer477]

I've always appreciated the Hawkins family and the level of sophistication they brought to gospel music.

[@allaboutmykids05]

Jackie looked amazed at Karen's voice at 4:20.

[@juliuswtkns]

yeah😂😂😂

[@waltermccauley4079]

Childhood memories. The Hawkins Family was the deal. I love them.

[@Yvonne_ennovY]

That smile shared by Lynette, Dorinda, and Shirley (Caesar) while Twinkie sang at the end. I’m sure they were all thinking what we think as we watch this video. I wish I could’ve experienced this concert in person. All that talent and anointing on one stage, wow. 🥰

[@titusbrown6311]

I love how excited niecy got when Twinkie started sing ❤️❤️

[@juice2333]

I could watch this 1,000 times and never get tired of it!

[@litabenning3480]

Denise cracks me up how she was clapping she was happy Awesome job Karen wheeew

[@jzk1990]

Karen gets me every time. That raw spirit unleashed. Rev. Hawkins is a true trailblazer!

[@evadnecog]

The Clarke sisters also joined Joe Ligon and Shirley Ceasar at the end. Absolutely beautiful. Inspired and gifted that's what Walter was. Sure do miss him but his music lives on!!!

[@phylliskerby9271]

Walter Hawkins was born to SING, YES HE WAS

[@arthurj3532]

The man in the brown suit is Joe Ligon; he's the lead singer of the Mighty Clouds of Joy.

[@cgcade1]

I love the spontaneity! The unity is how the body of Christ is supposed to be. Love this! Thank you Bishop Walter L. Hawkins. Rest peacefully.

[@darlenegwin9479]

Lord have mercy! The Clark sisters I didn't noticed until one grabbed the mic "Praise God:

[@upclose22]

That's what I call singing. The Hawkins Family, the Clark Sisters, & Shirley Ceasar all on the same stage. This is the type of singing I grew up listening to plus the Winan family!

[@grosskopf2]

I love this song and I think that it is hilarious that Walter Hawkins left after he gave Twinkie the mike. She was looking for him and he was moving around in the back of the people seemed like he was doing on purpose.

[@MrNathan791]

She touched me!!!! Sing Twinkie!!

[@Yvonne_ennovY]

She tore it up 🙌🏾🥰 She should’ve had that microphone earlier!

[@doointhedoo]

This is the greatest gospel song ever recorded!!!

[@directorofmusc]

Wow! It was the style of gospel music the Hawkins introduced to the world I believe in 1966 with there first album, "Joy, Joy", that inspired me to learn the piano and organ. Such a tremendous inspiration to me over the years. Now I'm Director of Music of one of the top choirs in VA. Rest in Peace Bishop Walter Hawkins.

[@jaschenderson]

his PHENOMENAL & ANOINTED impact on gospel and its listeners will be missed!!! Praying for the Hawkins family that GOD WILL wipe away every tear, and HEAL your broken hearts!

[@jordanwynne6554]

Twinkie Sang Guh Sang

[@aresmall]

The amazing thing is...he sounded as good during his last few days as he did in the beginning! Simply awesome. I'm thankful I was old enough to enjoy, be blessed, and appreciate the beginning to the end; and still currently be blessed by his music.

[@upclose22]

Gotta say thank you Lord for Walter Hawkins and his beautiful gift of song and encouragement! This is really touching my heart.

[@suenelson1024]

[@mannafestluv]

The Hawkins Fam always helped me through those tough times as a "baby Christian" (and still do)....they don't make em' like this anymore.

[@javenonline]

This brings back childhood memories. I grew up on gospel music and moments like this. May God continue to bless the Hawkins family and all of you who are apart of this great heritage known as Gospel Music!

[@soulchild0808]

I remember this song be sang in church. I smile and cried when I heard it on here. I was younger than 7 then and now 34. Such an impact on my life. GOD is good.

[@sweetsweet81]

I so love this song! It makes me want to cry listening to this song! I remember listening to this song as a little girl (born in '81; thanks Mom!). My mom had this album, the vinyl album (I told you I was born in the 80's)....hey, look at Shirley Caesar!!

[@jlt11422]

Tears run down my face and all i can say is thank you LORD!!!!!!

[@chrissangit]

I love this song sing twikkie

[@oldschoolsituationz]

man what sentiment, i remember those days like it was yesterday. i knew many of these people personally back then i am contemporary with them. those were the good old. sherly ceaser in many ways seems to age backwards. i remember she looked like a grandma back then now shes well different. young people enjoy your youth and one another in it hold on to it as long as you can. apostle e.w. wilcots once told me the same thing one day you will wake up and that magic will be gone you will just be old!

[@blues999z]

My Very Best Too You - You & Your Music Will Live On Forever - RIP Brother...

[@zeequeen3]

I recently lost my sister and this song brought condolence to me. May Bishop Hawkins rest in peace.

[@SaggiScorp]

I play this CD almost every morning and have for about a year, now. Never get tired of it and his other music. One of God's choir directors. How blessed we are to have the experience. Something to look forward to.

[@gloco620]

This is my absolute favorite Walter Hawkins song, brings tears to my eyes everytime I hear it....Thanks for posting it.

[@biggdogg35810]

I tell ya, some stuff in life will NEVER get old.

[@iloveinternet67]

The best Gospel music singer....R.I.P. Bishop Walter Hawkins!

[@suenelson1024]

These wonderful GOSPEL artist were in there prime before the Lord. FANTASTIC! I emphasized GOSPEL because our society keeps REdefining Gospel, by calling it inspirational, motivational, we are almost combined with R&B (sad) our Sweet Savior is being moved to the back burner more and more.

[@vangoghmatisse1]

Walter had a voice of an ANGEL!!!!!!!!

[@KNOWXPLANATION]

love this song...sung it at a funeral and i barely got thru it...R.I.P. BISHOP WALTER HAWKINS

[@MrEb937]

KING JESUS IS OWN HIS WAY BODY OF CHRIST , & IT WON'T BE LONG NOW!!! WE MUST BE READY LET'S CONTINUE TO WATCH & PRAY & CONTINUE TO LOVE A LOST PEOPLE [IN CHRIST] THAT'S THE ONLY WAY! WE MUST COME TOGETHER .

[@rickames]

I rememeber going to church on my own in jr. high & enjoyed it. Back then in the 70's the Hawkins family was the sound. Since i back slid & hear what they call gospel is a big gap for me. I missed that era of gospel, & i struggle to come back to God. But i'm so glad he's on my mind & heart now. I wish i could hear from God, & i will strive to hear his voice.

[@MsShay78]

We love you and we will miss you, Bishop Walter Hawkins.

[@ryshekiaallen5923]

[@brothaTEE]

His music was always a blessing to me and my family. I pray that God comforts the entire Hawkins family, as well as those who were close to them. Thank God we have a Hope in Glory!! My Brother is in Heaven today and his Pancreatic Cancer is NO MORE!! HALELUJAH!

[@wllfaith]

[@37tonya]

RIP Bishop Hawkins. You are gone but never forgotten. I always liked his music even though it was before his time.

[@melverlynnh]

I will miss Bishop Walter Hawkins. His music came at a time when we needed to hear all the lyrics for the many songs he wrote,

[@runtie1]

Bishop Walter has left so much rich music for us. He now is where he sang so much about going..God Bless Him. I miss him already..I am saddened, but yet I know he is happy where he is. I will see him one day !

[@mysite2009]

Love this song

[@dorothyporchia9569]

I am going away what a great day that will be I will see Jesus think you lord

[@TinaMo4Sho]

His ministry should teach us all that if you're faithful as he has been then you can truly sing this song and know where you are going away to. I may be young but I still can say that even this song blessed my soul. I have a hope in Jesus that makes me look forward to being with my Father just as he has. RIP Bishop Walter Hawkins... We'll miss you!!!
